Bise Morto is one of the places almost no one ever dives: the entry goes over an open rock shelf on which there is almost always swell. Catch a day when the water is flat and you dive a reef that is virtually untouched. Every other day, driving on is the right decision.
Bise Morto is a shore dive for experienced divers on the north-west coast: an entry over an open rock shelf, a reef top at five to seven metres and a steep slope to forty metres.
A reef top at five to seven metres with dense hard coral, dropping steeply beyond forty metres. Large vase sponges and black coral on the slope, and schools of jacks in the blue. The coral bears no visible entry damage.
Only in flat sea and offshore wind, and that is a few days a month. Judge the rock shelf on the spot; if water is running over it, it is off.
An open rock shelf with no shelter: the exit is dangerous at the slightest swell. No development, no traffic, no help nearby. Unpaved access, no shade, no water, no toilet.
Decisions on diveability, technique and health belong with STINAPA, a dive school or a doctor. This page only describes the conditions.
The name means something like dead inlet; the coast here is unsheltered and the bay all but dries out from surf in high seas. The area belongs to the little-trodden north coast, where the growth is in good condition for it.
